RAILROAD Comstruceion,

The work of railroad building has received
new impetus. The RaI,oay Age says that from
January TO April no less than 1,040 miles of
new main track have been laid on forty mine
different lines in twenty five States and Terri
tores This is larger total than has been re-
corded for any previous year up TO the same
date, except 1882, when the construction for the
entire year reached II, 56s miles The article
then says "If the record Of recent years forms
basis for an estimate, the work of the past three
months would indicate that track laying for the
year 1887 will aggregate from 5000 to 10000
miles But new element of uncertainty is to
be recognized this year, namely the effect of the
interstate commerce law upon new en-
terprises. The large mileage already laid down
is to be credited chiefly to the great railway
companies whose arrangements tor building
branches and extensions had already been made
before the law was enacted, and who could not
afford to abandon these enterprises whatever the
effect of the law might prove to be- Of the
1,040 miles already laid nearly half is in the H.
dian Territory and the State of Texas, each Of
which has added about $50 miles. Kansas shows
an addition Of nearly 100 miles, and California
about seventy miles. The remaining new mile
age is furnished by numerous extensions scat
tered throughout different States.

endeavoring to receive subscriptions for their
line. 1.-The city is thoroughly aroused to the i'm
portance Of heartily cooperating and lending
the greatest aid possible in building this impor-
tant line. The greatest friendship, however, is
expressed for the Birmingham, Georgia and
Florida railroad. This is line chartered from
Birmingham via Talladega, through Clay and
Randolph counties, via West Point and Colum-
bus to Tallahasses. The company own sixty
seven miles of grade between Cuthbert and
Tallahassee, and owns the Talladega and Coosa
Valley railroad, narrow gauge line well built
and well equipped from Talladega to Eden,
Work is progressing rapidly on the bridge
across the Coosa river by this company. They
expect to cross the river southwest of Talladega
by May Is They have several hundred hands
at work in st. Clair county pushing the line on
toward Birmingham, and engineers are locating
the line between Talladega and Ashland. This
city will subscribe over $4,000 to this, the

There appears TO me very simple solution of
the Senatorial difficulty. 1t is in keeping in the
place made vacant by the expiration of Senator
Jones term, the man with whom Gov. Perry
filled it. Gen. Finley is now in let him stay in.
His appointment met the approval of both press
and people, without dissenting voice. Let the
peoples representatives now ratify it by his
election, and there will be throughout the State
the same absence of dissent. The friends OF
the two leading candidates in the existing dead
lock-the pride OF their favorites being so deep
ly involved-cannot well yield the claims of
either to those Of the other. They can yield,
and il would be most graceful and credtable
thing for them TO do so, in favor of an older and
more experienced statesman. who, in the pres
ent contest has antagonzed neither Governor
Perry nor Ex-Governor Bioxham But hear
the fact Of Gen. Finley's aye raised as an objec-
tion-it is, indeed, the only objection which any
one has been able to suggest. l answer, there
is no. a statesman in Europe of the first rank
who is not older Disrae (Lord Beaconsield)
was older when lie last went into Office; Glad
stone was Bismarck is Won Moltke much older
when he conquered France, and the present great
ruler Of Germany twenty years older. More
than half of the United States Senators are
older, and twO-thirds Of the Federal Supreme
Court Judges. Age and legislative experience,
instead OF being objections, are recommends
lions in case OF legislative bodies charged with
such high duties as the Senate Of the United
States.

We print to-day sundry articles from various

which Tallahassee is interested. The surveying
corps of the line from Thomasville to Tallahas-
see is at work in Leon county, and will doubt

construction of the road will be completed next

that shows they will make up reasonable bal
ance if required.
The Birmingham, Georgia and Florida corpo-
rators are actively pushing their enterprise, and
it is announced that the surveying corps of the
Gainesville, Tallahassee and Western Railway
Company will soon be at work locating their
line. These roads are mutually dependent, and
meeting at Tallahassee they will complete and
open the grand northwesterly and southeasterly
route into and out of the Florida peninsula, and
of the myriad of travellers who will pass over
it a sufficient portion will be won by the oppor-
tunties that our county presents to enlist In the
cause fits progress, and that of the country to

Legislative Notes.

The routine business of the Legislature, given
elsewhere in the FLoRIDIAN and supplement,
shows that the work of the session is progressing
open daily sessions are concerned; but q large
amount of good, solid work is being accom-
plished in committee, as amply appears from
the capitalization of numerous bills on the same
subject into committee substitutes, which have
very generally been accepted and considered
with favor by the two houses in open session.
Reference Of bills have been made by the pre-
promptitude and discrimination and the COM
mittees have generally been 80 judciously con-
stituted as 10 work harmoniously and intelli-
gently. A number of similar committees in the
two houses have been consolidated into joint
committees, and thus enabled TO do far better
work than by acting separately.
The Senatorial question has somewhat Of

night of the 18th, the result being about the

Monday night 81 ballots were taken, q resolution

that committee be raised to arrange plan for
80 distributing the votes at the election on Tues
day that no election would result, and the caucus

of the law, was 10 nominate four Democratic

faction, and vote for the same alternately, 30 az

This was done in each house, and on Tuesday
night the caucus met again. After three BALLOTS

Senator Bryan that a committee of conference,
comprising five members of each faction, be

plan of compromise, il possible, and the caucus
again adjourned to Wednesday night without
accomplishing any definite result. The COM
mittee was proposed on behalf of the Bloxham
faction, and the proposition promptly accepted
by the Perry men. The following gentlemen
were selected to act on behalf of the Perry side:
Messrs Miller, Baskin, Mann. Orman and
Blackwell; and the following to act for the
Bloxham interest: Messrs Wall, Jones, Dyal
